CHEF TOM COLICCHIO: COVID19 SPECIAL DISPATCH

We are now a world at war. The coronavirus is the enemy we all face. And we are all united in our fight against that enemy. The Dispatches is a new quick-hit pod hosted by Iraq war veteran, author and activist Paul Rieckhoff that gives you news and information you can use in the fight to protect those around you, kill the virus and help win the war. In less than 30 minutes.  The next edition of the Dispatch checks-in with the American celebrity Tom Colicchio. Former Host of Top Chef, Tom is the recipient of five James Beard Foundation Awards for his culinary achievements and is on the front lines right now advocating for restaurants and their workers. Colicchio joined us for a longer conversation in Episode 8 of Angry Americans--one of our earliest episodes and one that definitely set the bar. More than one month after our natio waged war against the virus, Tom is back to give us his update live from NY on how the restaurant industry is going to be impacted. He breaks down the federal relief loan programs and their conundrums, and gives insights for how to navigate the pending economic breakdowns we’re likely to see in the months to come. Tom talks community feeding centers and more ideas on how government can be more responsive in this crisis era. This Dispatch is packed with the same integrity, information, inspiration and impact you get from every episode of Angry Americans. The war is on. This is your update. This is your dispatch.  The Dispatch is a production of Righteous Media. Watch the Conversation: https://youtu.be/jN3BzrSkby8
